Title
Axe socket
Description
English: Blade end fragment from a Late Bronze Age socketed axe, probably from the Ewart Park metalworking tradition, dated to c.1000-800BC. The axe fragment comprises of an eroded blade edge and bottom of the socket, much of the original surface has been lost. The axe would have been of comparatively slender form and possibly had re-curved sides. The surface on one face has the remnants of two of the (probable) three ribs, which appear to be running parallel to one another.
